通过定向基因转移技术和长期存在的人类驱动的选择压力（如土地使用变化、物种引进、大规模灭绝和抗生素的广泛应用），人类介导的遗传多样性变化的范围和强度都是新颖的，它们正在结合起来重组进化机制。人为变化的进化后果可以在生物组织的各个层面上观察到，并影响着微观和宏观进化变化的速度，以及它们之间的反馈。这可能对生态系统服务、粮食安全和人类健康的提供产生大规模影响。在这里，我们总结了几个进化动力学的人类修改的生态影响，特别是集中在新兴的分子技术，突出预测世界生态系统的后续变化的一些挑战。
Novel in their scope and intensity, human-mediated changes in genetic diversity through directed gene transfer technologies and longer standing human-driven selective pressures, such as land-use change, species introductions, mass extinctions, and broad application of antibiotics, are combining to reorganize mechanisms of evolution. The evolutionary consequences of anthropogenic change can be observed across levels of biological organization and are influencing the rate of micro-and macroevolutionary changes, as well as feedback among them. This may have large-scale effects on the provisioning of ecosystem services, food security, and human health. Here, we summarize several of the ecological implications of human modification of evolutionary dynamics, focusing specifically on emerging molecular technologies, to highlight some of the challenges in predicting subsequent changes in the world's ecosystems.
